Hi Pilou,

Sorry, I don't know the answer to this.

> Difficulties (for me) is transform a selection in a "frame" usable! :)

For a curve you could call evaluateTangent on it to get its tangent direction and use that as the z axis of your frame, and you would then need to make the x and y axis directions by doing some vector math like using crossproduct.

If a curve is planar, (crv.isPlanar == true) then you can get the frame of its plane by crv.planarFrame

The next v4 beta will also has that for faces as well.

yes but seems all that is in the "extention" parts!

So stay in stand by till I finish the "native" part :)

Points Node (English French) not sure of what is this! (from where comes the first curve of points? A simple line of ... by default because I have nothing selected! :)

Added a short synthetic (i wish:) explanation of each yet made Point Node section! :) (English French)

I am perplex about the ScalePts Node!

Don't work as supposed! (like the previous nodes)

I believe that Points would move away but nothing more than the still start position! ???
(there is nothing drawn on the rest of the screen)

I must miss something!
2 points are selected at the start!

TextPts Node (English) surrely more possiblities but this is working! :)

---

Clone To Points ( English French) ...and better understand of what was the "Points" Node! (a simple variable 3D Array! :)

http://moiscript.weebly.com/points-e.html

Input Selection inside an Array Base(s) of Points

---

I must understand how works the ScalePts! ??? Its also used inside JitterPts...
That is for the moment mysterious! (for me) :)

---

Need some infos about the Modes Step Twist Explode of TransformPTS node :)

---

ConvertPts Node ( English French) You have the weekend for give me some infos about MathsPts, ScalePts :)
Because i am in the jungle with these 2 last!
Little images of very simple nodes example if possible! Thx by advance!

Before Infos about MathPts & ScalePts i can start that seems the more easy : the Basic Section! :)

Hi Pilou,
It does seem like ScalePts node is not working. Maybe it needs different inputs?
I suspect that the problem is that the Pink Dots represent a pointarray class, which is much more than just raw points.

Max wrote: "point/frame array", and also "One more node added - TextArray
It converts text data to pointarray. For each point can be set upto six values: x, y, z, x-rotation angle, y-rotation angle, z-rotation angle."

Karsten posted some explanations, related to his splitPts node and his PointExt node.
7777.675
9189.16
9189.20 "at first - yes it's a frame description:
x,y,z, Euler-angles (x,y,z by using rotation order x,y,z), scale mostly 1 (useful for some programming - can be used as scale factor or for transformation proposes (homogenous coordinates)."
7777.1336

Puzzled - Brian

The pSize (scale) input is Karsten's PointExt node does not seem to work either?

---

So wait and see more info! :)
